Anaerobic Adhesives & sealants
Retaining Compound
Assembly of cylindrical parts, such as rotors, gears, bushings,
collars and bearing, can be effectively and reliably accomplished
with Hernon's line of Cylinlock Retaining Compounds. Cylinlock
high strength products eliminate the need for mechanical methods
of assembly while decreasing production and assembly cost.
Cylinlock Retaining Compounds are highly engineered,
100% active, high strength anaerobic liquids that cure to a tough
plastic when air is excluded. The plastic shim formed when Cylinlock
cures fills the voids present in even the best shrink or press
fits. These compounds also find utility in improving the performance
of mechanical retaining methods such as splines, keyways and
set screws.
The reliability of cylindrical assemblies is  determined
by the frictional force between the male and female parts of
the assembly. All surfaces under magnification exhibit waviness
and surface variations, even the most brightly ground and polished.
A good analogy is to picture these irregularities as a series
of high and low points, like the knuckles of the hand. Bearing
and shaft assemblies are subject to pounding forces in operation
such that the high points rub and wear away at each other. Anaerobic
adhesives increase the force required to initiate sliding and
wearing of surfaces on each other. Cylinlock retaining compounds
create mechanical anchoring within mating surfaces. The operational
forces must first overcome these anchors before sliding or wearing
can occur.
Cylinlock retaining compounds provide 100% contact
between mating surfaces when cured. Cylinlock retaining compounds
can be used between worn shafts or bearing housing, quickly restoring
these other wise useless assemblies without extensive and expensive
restoration processes such as metal-flame spraying, rechroming,
grinding, etc.
